`Midnight' gone from Savannah, but `Claudine's Return' arrives

By Associated Press

SAVANNAH, Ga. (AP) - Although "Midnight" mania has abated in the Savannah area, "Claudine's Return" has come to Tybee Island.

The movie began six weeks of filming this week.

It stars Christina Applegate, best known for her stint as Kellie Bundy on television's "Married with Children," and Stefano Dionisi, who has appeared in such films as "Correre Contro," and "Farinelli," which won the 1995 Golden Globe award for best foreign film.

"This is another great project for the Savannah area and especially Tybee Island," said Jay Self, the city's film services director. "The script was so perfect for Tybee, it was spooky."
